Andy sorry didnt get this out earlier, had to go out of town for work (yay work :) but yes, there is no acceleration limit while edming ( for heidenhain sink eroders, i doubt you'll find as much internal info from other mfctrs )
some may say that ignoring acc is just wrong but thats not from experience in this process in edm, we dont consider/remember/use the velocity of the previous servo cycle this system works and is tested i include imagebin url for the diagram specifically the acceleration is ignored during cutting ( labeled 'in gapcontrol' on diagram) and respected during positioning ( labeled 'in positioning' on diagram ). and for S&G, this weekends repair result videobin url https://videobin.org/+8v4/brq.html hth TomP tjtr33 imagebin url for control strategy diagram: http://ibin.co/1ypbbY4RbG7A On 04/14/2015 11:02 AM, andy pugh wrote: > On 11 April 2015 at 16:13, TJoseph Powderly <tjt...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> You may find that the adaptive feedrate idea is very wrong for edm. > > I think that the adaptive feed pin was introduced for wire EDM, and if > it doesn't work properly for that then it ought to change. > >> so, imo the adaptive feed is incorrect >> imo adaptive feed reduces the velocity to below the potential velocity >> (the efficient target point of the control loop) >> and thus forces inefficiency. > > If adaptive feed could be negative to retract or positive to advance > at the programmed feed rate then I think it could still work properly. > >> I'd also suggest that there are 4 common forms of edm >> Examining them shows their different TP strategies. > > I can only really see G-code and G-code reversal being useful for wire > EDM.
